Default 3IS on aftermarket 18" or 19" at STOCK height

For those that are running aftermarket 18" or 19" wheel on the stock height. (I have no intentions of lowering the car)

Would it be possible to post up some pictures of your car? I'm contemplating changing my wheels next season which is why I ask. Also if you can mention the wheel specs, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

These are 19x8.5 +32 / 19x10 +42
These tires are Continentals and are more rounded than some tires.
If you do a search you should be able to find a bunch of pics.

^ Thank you!

I did a quick search but most cars are lowered, which is why I created this thread.

How does it ride on 19s (comfort wise)? Any issues with cornering? Thanks in advance!

Nice choice of wheels by the way

The 19's ride fine for me. I am lowered on half downs now with larger tires, so my experience will vary from a non lowered closer to stock size tire.
I honestly love the feel of the car as it sits.

i slapped on 19" volks ze40 just to test the look. it raised my car higher, too high IMO. obviously it is raised an inch. do you get the picture now? this is about height. if you want to know about the offset, that's completely different story since not all wheels has the same offset. if you are going to drive on 19" without lowering, then tires will have plenty of room and of course it will not rub.

I'm on 19 inch Prodrive GC-05N and on PSS non-lowered 235/35/19, comfort is noticeably impacted as compared to the stock 17", but corners great even in the wet (these PSS are great). My next wheels will be 18 inch and on PSS again or if enough good reviews, then onto the PS4.
